Why coding?

Learn to Code and Program Your Own Games During Summer Holidays

These one-day coding camps are designed for Y2 – Y6 school students with active imagination and a passion for all things digital. Students code their own computer games and interactive animation stories whilst learning the basics of programming concepts.

During the Y2 – Y6 coding camps students will use Scratch Programming Environment (created by MIT Media Lab) – essential building blocks model that allows children to code amazing projects from the very first minutes. The learning process is based on fun and discovery.

We will encourage children to expand their creative thinking and problem solving skills in this programming adventure.

There will be three types of camps this Summer:

Beginners Coding Camps

Advanced 1 NEW Coding Camps

Advanced 2 NEW Coding Camp

Beginners Coding Camps

Will suit children with no previous experience. Students from Y2 to Y5 are welcome

Advanced 1 NEW Coding Camps

Are designed for those children, who know how to use Scratch already and who would like to explore this platform further and create more complex and advanced projects. Advanced 1 NEW Camp will also suit children who have done Beginners Camp before.

This is a new program, so if your children have done Advanced 1 camp with us last year – they are welcome to enrol into this course again.

Advanced 2 NEW Coding Camp

Are for those who are willing to face a real coding challenge. Will also suit those students who have done Beginners and Advanced 1 camp with us before.

If you want to book your child in two days – feel free to book them in any Beginners Coding Camp & any Advanced coding camp

If you want to book your child in three days – feel free to book them in any Beginners Coding Camp, Advanced 1 NEW Coding Camp and Advanced 2 NEW Coding Camp.

(Please note, there will be only one Advanced 2 NEW Coding camp, it will take place on Wednesday 25 January)

Each student will take home their own Scratch account (accessible anywhere using student username and password) with projects developed during the camp, which can be shared with family and friends.

Enrol now and let your children learn to code.
